Pope Benedict Bids Farewell to Monti
Keeping to his schedule on Saturday, Pope Benedict received caretaker Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti in a farewell audience. Monti, a devout Catholic, is leading a centrist coalition in next week's elections but the Vatican says the farewell meeting has nothing to do with the vote. The 85-year-old Benedict was having as normal a Saturday as possible, considering that his remaining scheduled public appearances can now be counted on one hand.
